A Correction The Women's League of Defense Glce Club Coming Methodist Church loka Farm Durocs Washington, January 21.—So urgent is the need for lumber men and road builders for im mediate service in France that the War Department has made an exception to its previous rui n g , and will now allow exper ienced men of draft age to enlist under certain conditions. Any man between eighteen and forty-one years of age, who is qualified physically and bv ex perience, may enlist for this ser vice; but they must obtain per mission to do so from Major C, E. Clarke, Chief Engineers Of fice. War Department, Washing ton D. C., by mail or telegraph. The men required will be sent to Fiance as soon as they are as sembled, without being held for military training. Trnmendous quantities of lum ber are required by the Ameri can troops in France. A special regiment known as the 20th En gineers, is being recruited to cut timber in the forests of France and manufacture it into lumber. This regiment will include exper ienced men of every class re quired in lumber camp operations The 20th Engineers needs im mediately 2,000 woodsmen, saw mill men, machinists and others who have worked at lumbering. It also needs 3.000 men who have worked at road building. These men are to construct roads from the woods to the mills and from the mills to the distributing de pots. In connection with both the lumbering and road-building operations complete crews of men experienced in the great variety of machinery used and in the camp and repair work involved are required. 1918.
